In this episode, host Sharon Tiger sits down with David Egts, who shares his experiences through multiple acquisitions and significant growth over the past 15 years as a technology leader at Red Hat. 

During the episode, David discusses why having the courage to create psychological safety and a culture where failure isn’t stigmatized is important to innovation. He will also share what he’s learned about protecting the good parts of an existing culture while leaving room for great ideas when acquisitions that create an influx of new people could potentially dilute the culture your existing employees have created.
